Chapter 69: Enter: The Old Troublemaker!
Merta Fairbang...
Merta was born here, yet her eyes always seemed to be higher than the sky. She was lazy, rude and just plain shrewish. She detested working in the fields and even cooking, saying she was going to marry a rich city man who doesn’t need his wife to do all these things.
In the end, she fell into the water of an Educated youth who came here back in the days when the country was under Reformation.
The Educated Youth was the son of a wealthy man, and already had a Fiancé. But because he jumped in to rescue her, he had to eventually marry her since they had skin to skin contact.
Even the blind could tell that the Educated Youth had been set up by Merta. But what could they do? Merta’s family made a fuss, wanting to sue the Educated Youth for hooliganism.
Long story short, Merta married a rich city boy just as she always wanted. And even if the marriage wasn’t satisfactory, so what? She had money to keep her company and secret lovers to wet her appetite with.
Surprisingly, after Merta married in, she quickly threw away the family that fought to make her wish come true. It was amazing how she abandoned her own widowed mother and grandmother who supported her in making a fuss.
It’s true that none of these women were good people at the time, but what she did was too shocking.
She can be mean to everyone in the world, but not these 2 who have her the world.
